Fear of the Night
I am trapped in a world I do not recognize,
A world that creates wonderful things
but, yet, they are so distant.
The stretch of my arm
does not come close to their touch.
I am forbidden to enter the tunnel
which sheds a magical spark of light
but am bound to stay in a place
with freightening darkness.
I am watched,
by an immortal sense of force
that has never been revealed to my eye.
Could there be
a way to escape this madness?
Could there be
a small place
for my beckoned soul
in a world in which I do not understand?
All these could be answered
with the arrival of the dawn,
and the sounds
that travel through my ears,
and awaken me from the darkness
in which I call the night.
